A beam has dimensions of b = 14 in., h = 26 in., d’ = 2.5 in., and d = 23.5 in. It is reinforced with 2 No. 5 bars on the compression side and 5 No. 8 bars on the tension side. The concrete strength is 2,500 psi, and the yield strength of the reinforcement is 60,000 psi. If the depth of the neutral axis is c = 7.961 in., determine the force in the compression reinforcement, Cs.

A beam has dimensions of b = 16 in., h = 28 in., and d = 25.5 in. and is reinforced with 4 No. 7 bars. The concrete strength is 9,400 psi, and the yield strength of the reinforcement is 60,000 psi. If the depth of the compressive stress block is a = 1.126408 in. and the strain in the reinforcement is εs = 0.041145, determine the strength φMn for this beam. Assume the transverse reinforcement is not spirals.
